Title: Panel and fastening system for panels
Inventor: HANNIG HANS-JURGEN
IPC: E04F15/04
Filed: 1999-10-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a fastening system (1) for panels (2, 3), especially for floor panels, that are placed on a base (U) and whose edges are provided with holding profiles. The holding profile of a long edge and the holding profile of the opposite edge as well as the holding profiles of the other two short edges of a panel (2, 3) match one another in such a manner that further panels (3) can be fastened to the free edges of one of the placed panels (2).  The holding profiles of the long edge of the panels (2, 3) are configured as complementary positive fit profiles (4, 5) and the panels (2, 3) are interconnected by pivoting them to be joined. The complementary positive fit profile is provided with a recess opposite the edge of the panel (2). The upper side facing away from the base is beveled so that there is room for the common joint.

Title: Low-loss inductive couplers for use in wired pipe strings
Inventor: JUNDT JACQUES
IPC: E21B47/12
Filed: 2002-03-22
Abstract: A first flux-loop inductive coupler element electrically couples with a second flux-loop inductive coupler element. The first flux-loop inductive coupler element comprises a first ring-like core having high magnetic permeability and a conical-section annular first face transverse to the plane of the first core. The first face has a first annular groove separating a first conical-section larger-diameter face and a first conical-section smaller-diameter face. A first coil is wound within the annular groove. The first and second cores form a low-reluctance closed magnetic path around the first coil and a second coil of the second flux-loop inductive coupler element. A first current-loop inductive coupler element electrically couples with a second current-loop inductive coupler element. The first current-loop inductive coupler element has a first high-conductivity, low-permeability shaped belt of a first end of a first pipe joint, a first ring-like core located at the first end, and a first electrically conductive coil wound about the first ring-like core. The first high-conductivity, low-permeability shaped belt partially encloses the first coil. It is shaped to cooperate with the second high-conductivity, low-permeability shaped belt of an adjacent second pipe joint having a second electrically conductive coil and a second high-conductivity, low-permeability shaped belt to create a closed toroidal electrical conducting path. The closed toroidal electrical conducting path encloses the first coil and the second coil when the first and second pipe joints are mated.

Inventor: COLTING HOKAN S
IPC: B64B1/02
Filed: 2002-06-25
Abstract: An airship has a generally spherical shape and has an internal envelope for containing a lifting gas such as Helium or Hydrogen. The airship has a propulsion and control system that permits it to be flown to a desired loitering location, and to be maintained in that location for a period of time. In one embodiment the airship may achieve neutral buoyancy when the internal envelope is as little as 7 % full of lifting gas, and may have a service ceiling of about 60,000 ft. The airship has an equipment module that can include either communications equipment, or monitoring equipment, or both. The airship can be remotely controlled from a ground station. The airship has a solar cell array and electric motors of the propulsion and control system are driven by power obtained from the array. The airship also has an auxiliary power unit that can be used to drive the electric motors. The airship can have a pusher propeller that assists in driving the airship and also moves the point of flow separation of the spherical airship further aft. In one embodiment the airship can be refuelled at altitude to permit extended loitering.

Title: Ospf backup interface
Inventor: JAMIESON DWIGHT D
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2001-12-20
Abstract: A method and apparatus provides protection against resource failures in Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) networks, without increasing the complexity of the network topology and/or management. An internal router (IR) automatically maintains a back-up link in a dormant state until a network failure affecting communications with a primary adjacent area border router (ABR) is detected.  Upon detection of the network failure, the IR activates the back-up link in order to enable traffic flow to an alternate adjacent ABR, which by-passes the network failure. Upon recovery of communications with the primary adjacent ABR, the IR automatically deactivates the back-up link and resumes traffic flow through the primary adjacent ABR. As a result, traffic is forwarded into the back-up link only when communications with the primary adjacent ABR has failed, thereby maintaining simplicity in the network topology, and minimizing network management and administration requirements.
